A sample of gaseous PCl5 was introduced into an evacuated flask so that the pressure of pure PCl5 would be 0.50 atm at 523 K. Ho

wever, PCl5 decomposes to gaseous PCl3 and Cl2, and the actual pressure in the flask was found to be 0.78 atm. Calculate Kp for the decomposition reaction PCl5(g) PCl3(g) Cl2(g) at 523 K. Also, calculate K at this temperature.

Answer:

Kp = 0.35 & Kc = 0.0075

Explanation:

                                PCl₅ ⇄ PCl₃ + Cl₂

Initial(atm)                 0.5         0       0

At equilibrium         0.5 - p      p       p

  • Total pressure at equilibrium = 0.78
  • 0.5 - p + p + p = 0.78
  • p = 0.28

So partial pressure of PCl₅ = 0.5 - 0.28 = 0.22 atm

Similarly PCl₃ = 0.28 atm & Cl₂ = 0.28 atm

According to law of mass action

     

  •                  Kp     =       \frac{(Ppcl3)(Pcl2)}{(Ppcl5)}
  •                  Kp     =     \frac{(0.28)(0.28)}{(0.22)}
  •                  Kp     =     0.35

We know Kp = Kc x (RT)Δng

               Δng = change in gaseous moles

                       = product moles - reactant moles

                       = 2 - 1

                        = 1

R = universal gas constant = 0.0821 lit. atm. mol⁻¹. K⁻¹

 So Kc = \frac{(0.35) }{(0.0821 )(523 K)}

            = 0.0081

4. Assuming the reaction below is at equilibrium, which of the following changes will drive the reaction to the left? C(s) + O2(
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Increasing temperature

Explanation:

C(s) + O_2(g) \leftrightharpoons CO_2(g)

Enthalpy of the reaction = -393.5 kJ/mol

Negative sign implies that reaction is exothermic.

Effect of change in reaction condition is explained by Le chateliers principle.

According to Le chateliers principle, if the reaction conditions of a reversible reaction in a state of dynamic equilibirum is changed, the reaction will move in a direction to counteract the change.

1. Increasing the temperature

Forward reaction is exothermic that means temperature increases in forward direction. Backward reaction will be endothermic and so there is decrease in temperature in backward direction or in left direction.

On increasing temperature, reaction will be move in direction to counteract the increased temperature, therefore reaction will move in left direction.

2. Adding O2

If O2 is added, then reaction will move in a direction in which its get consumed. So, reaction will move in forward direction or in right direction.

3. Removing C (s)

Le Chatelier's principle does not apply on solids, so removal of C(s) does not affect the equilibrium.

The question is incomplete, the complete question is:

Write the net ionic equation for the below chemical reaction:

(c): FeCl_3+3NH_4OH\rightarrow Fe(OH)_3+3NH_4CI

<u>Answer:</u> The net ionic equation is Fe^{3+}(aq)+3OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_3(s)

<u>Explanation:</u>

Net ionic equation is defined as the equations in which spectator ions are not included.

Spectator ions are the ones that are present equally on the reactant and product sides. They do not participate in the reaction.

(c):

The balanced molecular equation is:

FeCl_3(aq)+3NH_4OH(aq)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_3(s)+3NH_4Cl(aq)

The complete ionic equation follows:

Fe^{3+}(aq)+3Cl^-(aq)+3NH_4^+(aq)+3OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_3(s)+3NH_4^+(aq)+3Cl^-(aq)

As ammonium and chloride ions are present on both sides of the reaction. Thus, they are considered spectator ions.

The net ionic equation follows:

Fe^{3+}(aq)+3OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_3(s)
